Ingrnham, 14 Wall street, New York City. by dear Judge: At the request of Mr. Dorr, whose request was accom- panied by & momorandum made, as E O understand it, by you, we have redrafted some of the by-laws of the wild Gardens corporation. we hand you harowith a complete copy of the by-laws 88 adopted, to- gether with new draft of such by-laws 88 it is proposed to change. The provision that corporations may be members is we think a wise one. There can be no objection to it by reason of anything in our law. It is, of course, apparent that whether any part- icular corporation my logally become a member depends upon its charter. Whether the number of directors may be subject to change at the will of the mujority of members without change of by-laws is not absolutely cleare The same is true of the provision for electing directors who are not nembers. In the C886 of corpo- rations with capital stock it is cloar that the number of directors must be fixed and can only be changed by change of by-law, and it is ulso clear that directors must be members. i.e.. stockholders. The statute providing for organization of corporations with canital stock is explicit in these resports. Corporations without capital stock (like the Wild Cardons) are organized under a different chapter of tho statute. The above points are not referred to. Corporations without capital stook are given authority to make by- laws not inconsistent with law. The statute does not say explicit- ly that directors shall be members and makes no provision for change BOND BOND May 2. 1918. G.L.I. #2- in number of directors. Though wo have no precedent for it we are inclined to the opinion that the by-laws as amended roald be sustained 88 valid. There 18 no objection to having all officers elected by directors. The President must be elected by the directors and must be a director. The other officers may be elected by the board of directors. There is, of course, no objection to the change in the hy- law relating to amendments. We are sending a copy of this letter and of the now draft of by-laws to lar. Dorr.

Mr. George B. Dorr, Casmos Club, Washington, D.C. Dear Mr. Dorr: In accordance with your telegram, I have pre- pared and enclose herewith an attested copy of record of meeting of the Directors of The Wild Gardens of Acadia, em- powering you to execute the leases to Mr. Mather. I have affixed the seals and as I understand it all that is necess- ary now is for you to sign and have your signature witnessed, the witness adding his address. I have also included in the records a vote that you be authorized to accept the rent- als and give receipts therefor. I have not prepared a re- ceipt as the Government uses a special form. At the organization of this corporation you, Mr. Deasy and myself were elected directors. The by-laws provide that the directors shall consist of not less than three nor more than thirty. Hereafter the number of directors to be identical with the number of members at the time of election. on Dec- ember 16, 1916, Pres. Eliot, Mr. Eno, Alessandro Fabbri, Robert Abbe, DeWitt Cuyler and George L. Ingraham were elected members. on July 17, 1917, you resigned as President and Charles W. Eliot was elected as President in your place. The by-laws provide that the President shall be a director. On September 20, 1917, the following were elected as members : Department of the Interior, Director of the Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University, A. H. LYNAM Donny & Lynsm L R Annay Attorneys and A. iii. Lynam Counselors Bar Harbor, Maine, October 7th, 1918. G.B.D. #2- Princeton University, University of Virginia, University of Chicago. The records do not show any change in the or- iginal board of directors unless they become directors by being elected as members. I have talked with Mr. Deasy. There is some question as to whether they are directors, or not, but we thought it would be satisfactory if we took the action shown by the enclosed record.

Prof. Ulric Dahlgren Princetown University Princetown, N. J. Dear Sir:- I beg to acknowledge receipt of yours of the 7th acknowledging receipt of the leases from the wild Gardens. One copy of the lease should have the Harpswell Labaratory seal attached and then re- turned to me. I assume that it has been sent to the corporation for that purpose, although you said nothing about - it in your letter. Very truly yours, AHL-_M INGRAHAM, SHEEHAN & MORAN 14 WALL STREET NEW YORK May 10, 1918. My dear Mr. Deasy I received your letter with enclosures in relation to the Wild Gardens Corporation. Mr. Dorr cane to see me several times when he was in New York on his way to Washington, and I did dictate the changes in the by-laws which occurred to me as advisable. I should think that if there was no express prohibition as to directors being members of the corporation or that the number of directors could be fixed by a vote of the members at a regular meeting, that there would not be much risk in adopting the provision, as I imagine nobody would ever dispute it. I have gone over the proposed amendment tc the by-laws and think that you have accomplished the purpose as I suggested. You did not say that you wished the proposed amendment or the copy of the by- laws returned to you, and 80 I will keep them here, for I imagine I shall see Mr. Dorr again when he comes back tc New York, and the by-laws and amendment may be useful in discussion with him. I will return them to you at any time. I hope you have had a good winter and that you are in good health and spirits. I envy your being able to get off the District Board in the draft business, as they have kept me at it all winter, but I am determined I shall not attempt to stay on the Board if it requires any summer work.

Dorr University Club Fifth Ave & 54 th St. New York City Dear Mr. Dorr:- I beg to acknowledge receipt of yours of the 27th enclosing tax bills and cheoks for the Spring Company tax and $318.86 for the Wild Gardens. The Wild Gardens' tax is $366.58. leaving a balance due the Town of $47.78. The reason for this difference is that a portion of the property which is owned by the Wild Gardens was taxed to the Transit Company and should be taxed to the Wild Gardens.

I now enclose tracing, copies of deeds whereby the Mrter Company and The Reservations acquired the property, also copies of descriptions which, with perhaps a fow modifications relative to rights granted and reserved by the Weter Companies, are sufficient for conveyance to the Government.

The deeds to the Reservations and water Company are numbered the BAME 88 the tracing. The deeds by which E conveyance is to be mede are numbered the same viti the exception that & 8 many lots as possible are contained in one description. The property acquired under the deeds marked 1, 7, 3, 13, 18, 19, 20 and 21 contain the proper descriptions for a conveyence to the Government. The other lots are either grou ed together or a new de- scription made and numbered in accordance therewith.

Mr. George B. Dorr, 18 Commonwealth Ave., Boston, Mass. Dear Mr. Dorr: Answering cuestions submitted we beg tosay:- Meetings of the Trustees of Public Reservations (corporation) must be hold in the State of Maine and may be held at any place in the state. Proxies may be used - granted not more than thirty days before meeting. We are inclined to the belief that the proposed Arboretum and wild Gardens and endowment for maintenance thereof had better be held by individual trustees rather than by a new corporation. Assuming that the charter members of the corporation were the 88me persons there would perhaps not be much difference. But it seems to us that persons well known and of high standing, named 88 individual trustees, would inspire a greater degree of confidence in possible donors. There is a certain moral responsibility attached to an individ- ual trusteeship which would offer assurance of permenence. The duties of such trustees, the limitations of their powers and the method of succession could be carefully set forth either in full or by reference to prior deeds in any deed of gift either of land or funds for maintenance. Yours very truly, February 16, 1914. Mr. George B. Dorr, 18 Commonwealth Ave., Boston, Mass. Dear Mr. Dorr: I plan on leaving Bar Harbor tororrow. Tuesday, for the South. If you desire to see me and will telegraph me I will stop over in Boston. If I do not receive telegram I plan on going right through. Very truly yours, L/C DAVE H. MORRIS 19 EAST 70 IH STREET NEW YORK October 17, 1921 Honorable George B. Dorr, Bar Harbor, Maine. My dear George: I am enclosing letter from the Bar Harbor Trust Company showing a balance of $165.59 in the S. Weir Mitchell Memorial account. The last entry was on the 25th of August, 1916. Will you please let me know the situation in regard to this account, and if in your opinion it is not advisable to close it out?

Bangor, Maine, June 10, 1921. Mr. Edward M. Graham, President, Bengor Railway & Electric Company, Bangor, Maine. Dear Sir: I have made some figures on the cost of the mile end one half extension of our 2300 volt line from its present terminus ct the Pot and Kettle Club to Saulsbury Cove, terminating at the point where the Summer School is to be installed. The estimate of the cost of this work is shown on the attached sheets to be $2086.93. I have elso made an estimate of what I think it will actually cost us to operate this line, also the amount of revenue to be expected. ANNUAL CHARGES Interest on Investment, 9% on $2086.93 $187.82 Taxes 2% 41.72 Maintenance & Depreciation 6% 125.16 Operating Expenses on 2000 K.W. H. e 3.6₫ per K.W.H. 72.00 $426.70 Portion of Operating Expense of Ellsworth Power House, 9/5000 of $11,242.00 $20.25 Portion of total Bar Harbor Company Fixed Charges 162.00 $182.25 Total Annual Expense $608.95 Total Revenue 330.00 Lost on Extension $278.95 2- There are a few words to be said about some of the above items. It is estimated that 2000 K.W.H. would be sold a year to the ten customers along the new extension. The operating expenses in Bar Harbor for the your 1920 was 3.6 & per K.W.H.; hence, an itom of $72 WES inclu- ded ES operating expense for the new line. The total operating expense of the Ellsworth Power House in 1920 was $11,242. Assuming that the capacity of the Ellsworth Station is practically 5000 K.W. and elso that we have 9 K.W. in transformers in the new extension. I have estimated the portion or the Ellsworth operating expenses which should be borne by the now extension is 9/5000 of $11, 242., or $20.25; also that the portion of the Ellsworth Power House devoted to Hancock County business, plus the value of the present Bar Harbor distribution system represents an investment of approximatoly $1,000,000. and that 9/5000 of 9% on the quove investment would be $162., which represents the portion of ell the Bar Herbor fixed charges which should be borne by the new line. This mekes the total annuel expense of $608.95. of course, the last items are more or less approximate, but they give some idea of the proper proportion of the Company's annual fixed charges tir t s t any line extension should bear. Since any power company is made un of a great number of just such extensions as this, it is evident that if the small units did not beer their pro- portion, then the sum& of the units would not bear the fixed charges, and the business would not be profitable. 3- REVENUE There are fifteen houses elong this extension, ten of which will probably take electric current. There are something like six summer customers and four yearly customers who would be served. In 1920 the average income of the whole Bar Harbor Company was $37. per residence per year for all customors, both seasonal and yearly. The new rate went into effect in May 1920, so that for 1921 the annual revenue por customer should not exceed $30. Revenue per customor from 10 customers @ $30 each $300.00 Revenue from one street light 30.00 $330.00 You can see from the above that the total annuel expense would be $608.95 and the total estimated revenue, $330., making a loss on the extension of $278.95.

Dear Sirs: At a meeting of the Trustees of the Harpswell Laboratory held at the above date and location, the agreement to lease the land at Salisbury Cove from the Wild Gardens of Acadia Association and to move the Harpswell Laboratory activities to the land so leased was ratified and signed by our treasurer. The lease which the Wild Gardens of Acadia Association offered us was approved and the Director was requested to write a letter to the officers of the Wild Gardens of Acadia Association stating our understanding and interpretation of this lease. In regard to paragraph four, the phrase "And for none other except as may be essential or important to the furtherance of such end," the trustees interpret that as permitting them in addition to laboratory buildings and equipment to erect and construct tents, cottages or habitations for the students, research workers and assistants on the land and to receive a rental for these accommodations. In regard to paragraph five the phrase "this lease shall ipso facto cease and become null and void;" it is understood that in case of war or like emergency that if both parties agree to the suspension of the activities of the laboratory this clause in the lease will not operate.

Mr. Dorr expressed the wish to have a cottage and wharf on the Eastern end of the land and I agree to this and my consent was confirmed by others of the trustees. I would suggest as a modus operandi that the Harpswell Laboratory and its friends collect the funds for this improvement, build it according to Mr. Dorr's wishes and lease it to him without rental as long as he cares to have it. The greatest part of this "improvement" would be to have Mr. Dorr with us. Very sincerely, Ulin Dullgren.

February 17th, 1915. }rr A. H. Lyanm, Bar Harbor, Haine. My dear Mr Lynam, I wrote you under rather uncomfortable conditions from Augusta yesterday. The chances for our forestry measure seem now to be uncommonly good, if no agitation against it from the other toms on the Island makes itself felt in the Legislature when it comes before it. Mr Deasy and I met the chairman of the committee, Mr Colby, in the hotel corridor this morning and he again repeated his assurance that we should get a good report from them upon the measure. This report may be either unanimous or divided however, and if it goes before the Legislature with a unanimous report in its favor, it will be in a much stronger position there. so I asked Morrison to try and arrange before he came away, which he planned to do tomorrow morning, for in some way)learning if there were any melbers of the committee not friendly to the bill. If there should be and we know it in time, we might be able to bring S me influence to bear. Also it is going to be desirable to quietly keep in touch with the western side of the Island, through people living there who would not talk, so that we may know in season if me are going to be up against opposition, petitions, etc., from legislative that quarter when the bill comes up for its readings-- first or A 2 final. Please keep me informed of further progress in the matter; I will go dom to Augusta again at any time if it should seem de- sirable. I hope you will take up the two drafts for incorporation with Mr Deasy as soon as you get a chance. He and you each have copies of both now in my last form. TO the Articles of Association of the public service corpor- ation - the Arboretum and wild Gardens -- I would like to add the paragraph I now enclose, giving it power to act as a forestry as- sociation. There is a sreat deal of 'land upon the Island, and doubt- less on the mainland within the County too, that could be forested in the future under scientific management so as to meet its legiti- mate taxes and add greatly to the interest and beauty of the County, possibly becoming in the end a source of revenue also. I think I know several tracts already on the Island, owned by summer residents, which could be counted on to come in ere long for such holding and which R uld not be taken out of taxation by deeding to the Public Reservations. If this forestry measure for the Island goes through, I want to be in a position if possible to associate it with the Arboretum and Wild Gerdens corporation as its first undertaking and act of public service. It is directly alone the line of the work it ID uld undertake hereafter and it would give the Association stand- also ing of importance at the start. The Spring Incorporation I want to get started at once so that I may put that whole matter on a business basis. so, as I began by saying, I hope you will do what you I can to forward both. II Answering your letter, do not want to form main a separate hotel corporation if it be not absolutely necessary, and Mr Deasy said he saw no reason why it should be. From all 3 that I can see, the powers given in this regard by my Spring Company draft would abundantly cover the whole field. I had a short talk with Mr Bunker yesterday in his office, happening to pass by there as he was comins out, and he gave me some striking instances in the way in which charters drawn for one purpose were being allowed to serve for others widely different. Therefore it struck me that excessive care to cover every point that might arise hereafter, so long as the general ends were clearly stated was not necessary. What I am anxious to do however is to get our two acts of incorporation so dram that they can be used not only in a legal way but in a public one,as statements of the ends sought and objects undertaken. Yours truly, G.B. Dost THE HARPSWELL LABORATORY WEIR MITCHELL STATION BAR HARBOR, ME January 23, 1922. Mr. A. H. Lynam; Bar Harbor, Maine. Dear Mr. Lynam: I received your letter concerning our share of the taxes and will issue a voucher tc our treasurer, ur. I.i. J. Greenmam, ordering them paid. Before dcing SC 1 would like to inform myself on several points. Were these taxes levied by the assessors on the 14 1/2 acres we leased from the "Wild Gardens" as a separate item? ur did they levy on the whole property including the land to the north as well as the land to the south of the road and the "Wild Gardens" then apportion this share to the 14 1/2 acres leased to the Harps- well Labcratory? Also was the Laboratory building included in the property taxed? 1 ask this because the selectmen promised not to tax cur individual property and I wanted to be sure that their office force had not forgotten this fact. I am happy to report that Mr. Henry Eno has completely recovered from his very sericus illness (pneumonia) from which he nearly died. I am busy collecting money for our Harpswell Laboratory operations next summer and already have enough on hand or pledged to enable us to conduct the work. Luch interest is also being shown by the scientists of the country and I expect that our facilities will be taxed to their utmost by students and research workers. During February 1 shall be working in the large new aquarum and laboratory at Miami, Florida and expect tc get many pointers there as tc row we may develop at Bar Harbor. With kind regard to l.r. Dorr and to your brother, I am, Yours sincerely, Ulin 2l ahlgran. 18 Contionwealth Avenue, Boston. February 9th, 1914. Mr A. H. Lynam, Bar Harbor, Maine. My dear Mr Lynam, when I was in New York a few days ago I went to see Mr Filliam H. Bliss with regard to his wife's land on Newport Mountain. I told him what we were seeking to accomplish, both in regard to the National Monument and the Trustees Board. He was greatly inter ested at the thought of what might be accomplished by the latter, and asked me to let him have my papers on the subject to go over with his wife. I think that so far as his influence with her extends we shall get the land, but that he may probably prefer to have it pass - for the present at least -- into the keeping of the Trustees Board, as giving more definite assurance of control in sympathy with his adjoining ownership. with reference to this, he suggested of his own accord making the boundary pass not through the woods immediately below the mountain but down below these woods upon the meadow - far enough off to lead a path along below the cliff in the open with opportunity for view. This seems to offer an oppor- tunity important to take if possible and one that it will be wise not to let wait. Mr Bliss asked me if I would let him have some map showing in a general way their property and its relation to the mountain sides and sumit, and also to Professor Brinnow's land and the land he gave tie Reservation. I told him that I thought you would be able to MAY 2 draw out, - in a diagramatic way - such a map yourself, one that will enable him to talk the matter over intelligently with his wife. Just where the line should be drawn upon the meadow I cannot tell from memory with certainty but should think it ought to lie not far from the foot of th no rising ground which Peach has cultivated and where he has kept his bigs at different times. One has to get fairly well off there in order to get the most striking view of the cliff above the beech trees; but, I think the path might best go part way un the slope of this cultivated rise with space enough below for plantine out any disfigurement that might be made upon for the meadow and k eeping manure piles, pig-yards and the like hereafter at a distance. W 111 you take such opportunity as you will find to go and take a look at it and write me word - sending me up a plan also if you can ? I do not want to do anything to make Peach conversant with the matter at this st.gg, as he would be certain to write to Mrs Bliss in hindrance of it. Nor would my plan involve disturbing his occu- rent pation of this land in a way to lessen present to Mr Bliss. I simply want to secure the land for patn-development hereafter. Yours truly, G.B.
